Seeding New or Existing Lawns
If your home was just built you might just have a few thousand square feet of dirt instead of a lawn. It may be appealing to lay sod and have an instantly green lawn, but sod is often more costly and less effective than seeding your lawn. Oberndorfer will till your lot, lay fertilizer, phosphorous, or other nutrients necessary for seeds to take root.
Even if you just have a few bare patches, the experts at Oberndorfer Landscape Development will have your lawn looking like new. We test the soil and find the appropriate seed to match your existing turf, ensuring a healthy lawn for years to come.
Grass Seed vs Sod
If your lawn has large patches of dirt, or is entirely dirt, professionally installing sod might be the best option. Sod is pre grown grass often cut into rolls and is best installed on your lawn by a professional.
Fall and spring are generally the best time to apply sod. Fresh, green sod can be rolled onto your property by a professional in as little as one day, leaving you with a beautiful green lawn. However, installing sod is significantly more expensive than seeding your lawn, and might struggle to take hold if your soil doesn’t have the right nutrients.
Seeding your lawn is not only more cost effective, it allows you to match your existing yard. Over time, sod is less likely to take root than seeds. A properly seeded lawn will match your existing turf and grow in well, while sod might never match your original lawn. Oberndorfer only carries fresh seed carefully selected to thrive in the climate of southeast Wisconsin like:
- Fine Fescue
- Kentucky Bluegrass
- Perennial Ryegrass
Seed can be applied by homeowners and professionals alike over bare patches or entire lawns. In the long run, seeding is the higher quality, cost effective option.

Lawn Seeding Cost
The cost of lawn seeding is determined by the size of your yard, the condition of your existing grass, and the variety of grass you choose. Bigger yards require more grass seed for effective coverage, which translated to a higher cost. The cost of lawn seeding will also increase if your lawn needs to be removed before beginning the reseeding process.
